This is fantastic and I've never heard of them! Very cool video, sound (kind of like David Byrne fronting Devo) and video! Impressive that they're still working this day, too! I'm very motivated to learn more about them and their music. Thank you.
@shiningsun2k Not very surprising that you haven't heard of them. They're VERY much a cult band who have forever coyly shunned the spotlight. They have however, produced a phenomenal amount of work over the years. Most of it very adventurous and uncompromising. I'm really pleased that you like this, though. :-)
"A Montage of Accelerated Memory." That was great. I treat memory so preciously. This rapid-fire mishandling is maybe the treatment memory deserves. Also haven't heard of them. But such a long career. And "theatrical electronic cabaret," according to Wikipedia. Think I'll be looking into them -- thanks for this!
@iprefernotto I wish I could flick through photos this quick without seeming impolite when friends & family present me with a never-ending supply to look at! Actually, I quite like it at this speed. It leaves a harder-hitting impact & a longer lasting impression.....Glad you're getting interested in the band!

Love these #FREAKOUT jams! Haven't listened to Tuxedomoon in quite a while. Their music stands up to the test of time, I'm pleased to note.

@BladeRunner Oh!, I know that one. Hope you jam it soon!....Intense!...Sure is. It's like a 'white-knuckle' ride, isn't it?
BladeRunner
@debutch ok, just checked what 'white-knuckle ride' means, and YES! by all means!!! kkkk that's why it's a FREAKOUT jam! ;)
